Shear behaviour of reinforced concrete beams subjected to high axial compression.

摘要

Very little published experimental research is available on reinforced concrete elements subjected to high compression and shear. The design procedures proposed by the American Concrete Institute (ACI) are based on data from tests in low compressive stress range of about 0.1;It was found that the stirrups enhance the strength of specimens considerably. Test results clearly indicate that T-headed stirrups provide better anchorage and are more effective as compared to standard 90
